[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Germantown Friends School has 12 (or more) going to Penn. The Quakers have their favorites.[/quote] Half of GFS parents work at Penn, though. It’s the biggest employer in the area and it’s financially beneficial for their kids to attend. And there are local publics who also send tons to Penn for the same reasons. It’s also pretty consistent year after year. It’s a little different I think.[/quote] Sure, justify it like that. It just seems outrageous to be taking 12 kids from 1 school simply because of faculty connections - and that’s only from ED![/quote] Mostly staff, not faculty, but the point is colleges often take many from their immediate community. Princeton takes tons from Princeton High School. This is more of a “hot school” trend or one-off.[/quote]
